Yeah I worked for a few months and did a no show and quit during a long weekend! The pay is garbage but I supplemented my pay with chocolate milks in the cooler! I bet yeah they must’ve found a few dozen empties after I left 🤓🤔🤭🤫
I worked at Mcdonalds for a few years starting at age 14. Easily the worst job I've had since. This is exactly what happens when you put creepers and drug addict 25 year olds in positions of power over 14 to 17 year olds.
At Carl’s Jr. You have to be at least 16 and when I worked there in my early 20’s for 3 years I only ever had one 16 yo co worker and the rest were young adults at least 18. 14 seems too young to be working in general.
@@monicad.615 worked at McDonald’s at 14 when I was just a high school freshman. I was the cook and the oil definitely didn’t help with the acne LOL. That job sucks for everyone, at 16 I moved on to retail... different kind of hell 😅.
The smell of my clothes after a shift was disgusting. Even when I get something from the drive thru I get a good wiff of the grease and just drive off.
And you know what’s sad is that McDonald’s doesn’t fire you, they will make you feel so uncomfortable to where you feel like you have no other choice but to quit
People don’t understand being stuck in situations like this, especially when you are a young girl. Most girls, boys as well, are taught “Stranger Danger” when they are young. But nothing is taught about how to recognize what is illegal behavior with an employer or coworker.
@@perhaps1094 Don't confront them, record the harassment and sue them. It's the only way to protect yourself. If you report it to the higher ups in the company, they will fire you because you are easily replaceable compared to a manager. They don't care about doing the right thing, they just want to avoid a potential problem. The worse punishment the predator will get is a lecture.
I think a lot of it has to do with the culture. We are taught to ignore our neighbors but be subservient to authority. Exemplary subservience to power I must revere the system for its perfect propaganda.
This is why I treat McDonald's or any other fast food restaurant employees with respect they work hard and don't get paid that well, we just gotta do better as humans
You obviously have a better job now? Do you like your new job better? Do you get paid better or the same? It sounds like you still have choices in life. May be you should study the McDonald franchise model and see just what it costs, and also what an independent owner really makes when it is all said and done. I'll help you out. Not as much as you think Or..........stay ignorant and in your own wheelhouse, employee.
I was Mcdonald's employee of the month. They gave me a £10 gift card. I was an employee of the month at a mom-and-pop restaurant and they gave me £100 in cash.

McDonald’s was my first job and I distinctly remember seeing the 30+ year old managers and older work staff sexually harass young girls I worked with. I remember a girl telling on one of them and nothing happening. This is a problem with any fast food organization that allows creepy 25+-year-olds work around children that are just trying to get their foot in the Work market. I complained about those creepers and I got fired.
The fact your issue with with the age difference in workers and not the power dynamic. Plenty of 20 year old mangers abuse power too. Focus on the issue not the false issue.
"Social Justice" in general is exactly that, lol. Sketchy fools trying to virtue signal as some freudian attempt to avoid judgement themselves. Despicable behavior is not unique to any business or industry (or religion lol). They just need to be like Nancy Pelosi or Biden, and say "BLM" and use their media friends to spread the coverage of it, and they'll be off the hook.
Worked at Burger King as a 16 year old. With a creepy manager in his 40s. The managers office was called "the touch space" it was like a closet. Litrally a inbuilt desk with room for a chair plus a stool. You couldn't fit no more than two people at a time. All franchise managers offices are like this.. Why! Such a intimate claustrophobic, windowless space. The manager tried to put his arms around me in there once. I reacted by hitting him in his neck, he quickly opened the door. And hardly ever spoke to me again.
I feel like burger king is the worst to their employees. Our office was like that too. I worked there for 4 years and due to my alternative look I got asked from a manager if I was a Satanist. It was horrible there the managers are the worst.
I worked at McDonald's as a kid during school. Never had a problem with co-workers or managers, but we got everything from abuse to assaulted by customers on a daily basis. It seems even crazier how some of these adult customers acted when you look back on the time as an adult yourself.

I feel horrible hearing how many victims there are, especially because i currently work at McDonalds. I personally have never been through harassment from the managers or crew members, but I’ve been uncomfortably “complimented” by nasty old men and one had even stalked me. It’s absolutely disgusting how this happens and i’m so glad this is coming to light.
@@mariea.8100 Not really they would rather keep to themselves to protect their image plus there is readily available porn and sex dolls nowadays that can act as substitutes
I used to work at at Wendy’s and was really close to one of the Managers. We were the same age and she was the only female Manager. She would tell me all the time how Other managers would grab her and one guy tried to actually kiss her.
Ladies... anytime you find yourself in a sexually intimidating situation ALWAYS aim for the balls/testicles. I would never tell you to do this as a guy, I know how it hurts...but when someone is trying to sexually harass you ladies go for it. As hard as you can kick them in balls...smash it if you can. They should be castrated
@@waliddjema5442 Mcdonald's are letting their franchisees operate with impunity. The only people capable of stopping franchise owners that harass their workers is the corporation itself. Therefore, they're accountable. It's literally in the video.
I was harassed by fellow graduates daily while I was working because of my orientation Managers refused to try and help out It came down to the fellow coworkers to stand up for me and help out Had a junior manager with zero people skills Get in a argument with me, throw a Mac bun at me And proceed to call me retarded
My gf works at McDonald’s for the last 7 years and never got promoted above manager making 14$ an hour. Her boss is best friends with the store owner and gets away with whatever he wants. This all sounds familiar. She’s been so manipulated since she was 17
In my early 20's I was a franchise McDonald's manager for years. I'm not exaggerating...I ended up in therapy. I seriously discourage anyone from working in fast food if you can help it. I understand not everyone has a choice but it should be your last choice. I was so fucking stressed out, I couldn't see or think straight. Most management in fast food places hate their lives and have these weird superiority complexes. The entry-level employees were usually good people just trying to earn a living but my fellow managers were just crap humans that took everything out on those below them. The job itself is too damn stressful, especially for the pay. I eventually became a stay-at-home mom for a while but now I'm a part-time bar tender just to get out of the house. You'd think this job would be worse but it's a piece of cake compared to McDonald's, on top of making 3-4 times as much money. Fast food, mainly the management, is just a cesspool of human trash. I'd literally rather be homeless than work there again. These corporations don't give 2 fucks about their employees or the employees of franchise operators. As long as they're getting their slice of the money they're good with whatever is happening. I'm glad that people are suing the corporations. They need to take responsibility too. You don't get to just sit there and collect profit while the workers making you that money are being used and abused. That's disgusting.
Thank you so much for sharing your story. I'm so sorry that you had this experience, I cannot imagine the trauma that you still carry to this day because of what you went through. Sending much love to you.
It's normal, jobs like that tends to attract people who are frustrated with their lives, and insecure about their position in a society, so they became exceptionally drunk with a little bit of power.
Worked at McDonald's in the late 90's. As a new female worker, the environment was almost like a hazing. Touching, grabbing, etc. If that wasnt enough, the boys (often worked the cooking line) would pee in the soapy buckets used to wipe the tables. Would let you wipe them, as they stood around laughing...only to tell you later you wiped tables with pee. And you better go back and wipe them again. There were so many disgusting things going on there it was unreal. I think I got one paycheck out of that place and quit.
He's blaming "systemic racism" because his white friends drive new Escalades, while he drives new Suburban. It costs over 1 million dollars to open a McDonald's franchise. I don't think of all people has been viciously beaten down by "systemic racism".
I've never worked at a mcdonald's, but I see how busy they are in comparison to most fast food restaurants, and their workers don't get paid good for the service they provide
@@ZaOnly420 maybe because they are overworked and understaffed. The McDonald’s in my neighborhood is always understaffed but they work hard to get the orders out. It’s a 2 lane McDonald’s and the lines are always long
They make 13-15 dollars an hour, plus free meals on the job, for preparing burgers and fries. You get paid good for welding girders or installing cables. The issue isn't pay, it's the cost of living, which has more to do with housing regulations, zoning, and unions which make the cost of living high for people who work in low-skill/income jobs.
Now it makes me think why my 15 year old niece only worked a week at McDonald’s and quit without telling her parents. We were all disappointed at the time but to my niece’s credit she had another job within a week. She continues to work hard around her schooling. I know her older sister did quit her first job, serving elderly in a retirement setting because of a pervert in the kitchen constantly touching and patting the girls. She was not the only girl to quit. As her aunt I was angry that a young person I care for had already had her first experience of sexual harassment in the workplace and not yet a senior in high school.
I worked at McDonald a couple years ago when I was 16. I experienced sexual harassment every day I worked there. I honestly don't remember even a single shift where I didn't.
@@JW-uy2on Multiple times - it was pretty much an epidemic at that place tho, a handful of my friends had the same experience and they did too but they always just shut it down - especially because some of it also came from customers; they just said that we had to "just try harder to make them happy" and that would make them stop (spoiler: it didn't.)
Make a scene everytime it happens if they threatened to fire you over it give them your lawyer phone number no franchise will risk it if they do go right to your local news station or reporter and tell your story they love stuff like that and you'll get a kickback and destroy that franchise with the backlash time to be warriors women of America and fight back
This is so common in many industries, but especially the food industry. Owners and managers have so much power over you. Unions are a minimum necessity in every workplace. Unions for all!!!
@Johan Abdullah Holm That is an ideal situation. Humans are corruptible by nature not through environmental variables. If they are greedy in a Capitalistic environment so will they be in a Communist one. YEARS of Biological and Psychological evolution vs years of social evolution. Hierarchy is inevitable.
i was sexually harassed though by a fellow female employee at a Whataburger I used to work at, I reported her and she got fired after they reviewed the cameras. They listened to me though I feel for others who’s cries often get ignored.
My ex girlfriend worked in fast food at 16..she said it wasn't until a girl recorded the sexual harassment happening to her that corporate got involved. There were many complaints against the shift manager ( the younger the more aggressive he was towards them) but nothing would come of it. Most of the time the girls would either be fired or made to do double the work bc they made a complaint. There's a reason managers hire young girls at higher rates than guys.
It wasn’t fast food but I worked at a clothing franchise where the first day I was harassed by the manager. I was afraid to say anything because I just got the job....and I found out other girls who tried to tell where suppressed or fired. The female manager said it was up to every girl to report it together for something to be done. Sadly, this is just something women put up with just to survive.
As a female chef I've worked in the restaurant industry all my adult life. Never fast food but food service is food service. I've been harassed so many times I've lost count. I've quit one job because of it even after asking the person to stop and then going to management. Seems to be common problem these days.
@@sve5543 I think alot of women go through it and we ignore it because it's so common. It is sad that so many including me have become numb to harassment, hopefully we can raise our boys to better men than the generation before them....
Being a respectable guy, I never realized how the average man can be so gross until my girlfriend started telling me things she had to hear in the streets. I was not aware cat calling was common.
I worked at a McDonald’s when I was 18-19 & yes there was unwanted flirting & comments but I was never physically touched. Even still it’s definitely an issue to be addressed . I feel terrible for these ladies . Justice for them! The owners should be ashamed 😢
I swear alot of u females big cap “unwanted flirting and comments” how do we know u weren’t provoking how do we know u weren’t just bitter about something
I believe them, when I worked there a general manager kept a Astro van with a mattress. If you wanted to be promoted or anything you had to get in the van. I refused to get in the van, he told me to wise up that look at all my peers what do you think they did and they started way after me. I still refused and he demoted me. I was so humiliated as he yelled and berated me everyday till I quit
Damn, when Daryl began to cry that broke my heart. I feel bad for these men for being treated the way they are being treated. It's despicable what McDonald's is doing.
At 17 a married 40 year old manager asked me to go on holiday with him and generally just didn’t leave me alone for years , another staff members backed me into a corner in a stock room and felt me up :/ , wasn’t a pleasant place to work as a young teenager
I'm so incredibly sorry to hear about this experience. Thank you for sharing your story, know there are people out here who will support and fight for you. Sending lots of love!
@@alisa2650 thank you , it was a long time ago now I’m in my 30s but unfortunately the same thing is still happening to young girls I know who work for the place :( , in hindsight I should of spoke out at the time but I didn’t think it would lead to anywhere :(
Omg that's so disgusting man and I am so so sorry to hear that you had to go through that!! I really hope you got justice and that they pervs got charged x
Heartbreaking. The young women who was badgered and harassed until she was raped by her manager, a person who had power over her, is just horrifying and something women know all too well.
God, Jenna's face looks so defeated. Broke my heart to watch. Every retail or food service job I've had I've been assaulted or at least sexually harassed by a manager or coworker and there has never been anything done about it. Misogyny is ingrained in our culture. It feels so hopeless.
I was sexually harassed by a fellow employee when I worked at Burger King years ago. My boss actually yelled at me for not reporting the incident sooner but there were MULTIPLE incidents and I said NO every time. The regional manager was much more understanding and helpful. Eventually, the other employee was fired.
@Ed Lopow don't lump men into a whole ass category with sexual abusers..abusers don't care its about power for them..no need to hate on these women's bodies..some may be this big from depression as a direct result of loss of employment and being sexually assaulted by their boss
Stuff like this goes on everywhere. I have a union job and this is how the game is played. Kiss up to your bosses and supervisors. Gain their trust and pay your dues.
As a female who worked in (non-fast-food) restaurants spanning from 15-18 years old, I can attest that there’s a culture in which harassment is not only tolerated but normalized. It’s tragic and atrocious that underage girls are allowed to be treated this way and no one has even attempted to stop it. I believe all of these young women and wish this much success in their upcoming lawsuit!
As someone who's first job was at mcdonalds, i can see this happenning. During my time there, most managers were in their mid-20's and very unprofessional. Our GM had an affair with an under age female employee. Disturbing.
@@mustertherohirrim7315 As someone who used to work at one, they do in fact employ minors, but only on earlier shifts. Minors just have certain people restrictions on what stations they can work. Hope this helps.

I’m 15 and working at bk, overall it’s alright but the hours and terrible pay sucks, I can’t wait to get out of the fast food industry and upgrade in jobs
I was 16 when i got harassed and was alone in the store running it. called the cops scared the guy out of the store , cops never showed up. still have ptsd from it all he did it for months btw. and i won the lawsuit
my manager allowed him to still come in because he was a regular like a friend to her. bullshit put me through hell amd subject to horrible comments and wanting to cry and jump out of my skin
As a female who has been in the food and beverage industry for over 25 years, I can tell you this isn’t just McDonalds. Nor is this an isolated incident. I have been subjected to sexual harassment in the workplace too many times to count. I was even fired from a restaurant in my early twenties after being slapped on the ass by the owner and threatening to file sexual harassment lawsuit. By the time I turned 30ish I just accepted it as part of the job. It was not until I began working for a major coffee company that I realized it isn’t supposed to be that way. These women are telling the truth.
Its very important everyone understands what it means when they say independent franchise owner. I worked for a McDonalds that was independently owned for years and was even assistant general before I quit. This is 100% real and when you try to the right thing and report it to corporate they literally tell you its not there problem and you have to contact the owner. (The owner was who I was trying to report)
I hope those who wrote negative comments are able to see here. They keep denying things like this happened, and replied back with "why don't you just report them lmao"

@Win Everything lol you think thats just an American thing. Were much better than some places like India where the women will be blamed for having this happen to her and usually cant get much done. Same with in Mexico where women are raped all the time with no recourse, especially when they are immigrating to America. In Canada its just like the USA..this occurs. Same with other 'western' nations... There is prob no where in the world where this doesnt happen...
Everything about it sucks from the management to the garbage food and the weirdos that gobble it down every fucking day. Like no sane person can work there you usually get loopy from eating it every day and inhaling the toxic fumes from the grill.
I was SA'd by a Pizza Hut manager when I was 14, I didn't even work there...I was in having dinner with friends before the cinema. At the time I was actually kind of flattered that someone older was interested in me. Now looking back I realise how fucked the whole thing was.

This is so what women in low wage jobs deal with and no one prepares you for it. I had mild sexual harassment at MCDONALDS but subway was my guest experience with hardcore harassment. I was 18 and after I had to hit the nephew of the owner with a box of cold cut combo to eascpe a walk in fridge, I transferred to another store. Except it was worse there. And that’s not even my worst experience of sexual harassment at work.
Exactly, these kinds of things are common behind closed doors. People in the comments section acting shocked like they're seeing people on Mars for the first time. Jesus Christ, people just either are naive or just delusional.
I am technically still employed by mcdonald’s but am looking for a job elsewhere. My experience is that even if there is no explicit harassment like touching and grabbing, the adult managers will still do things to an often underage girl that are not appropriate. The main manager of my workplace not only hires 50% skinny teenage girls but gets uncomfortably close physically and uncomfortably intimate with what he says. He sometimes portrays himself as more than just a manager to them. The vast majority also work up front, where they get oogled and sometimes hit on by male customers. Its a disgusting culture, no one intervenes and the girls themselves only smile and play along because it puts their job at risk if they do anything otherwise, but everyone knows it happens. I honestly would not be surprised if this type of stuff happens anywhere and everywhere, much more often than we’ll ever know, but it just hasn’t been said out loud yet.
With the consistent weekly profits I'm getting investing with Mrs Emilia Castillo there's no doubt, she is the most reliable in the market. Such a genius.
What's crazy, this isn't new. I worked at McDonald's back in 1987 and the managers as well as crew were sexually inappropriate with us then too. It wasn't considered sexual harassment back then. We has these managers who were twin brothers who would kiss us in the mouth as if to say good job. I was only 16 at the time so I didn't know any different.
I worked at McDonald’s and I was harassed by a guy I dated that worked with me. He found out I was seeing someone new and he proceeded to yell at me and grab me in front of the entire crew. Nobody did anything and I had to talk the guy down in front of others. Also worked at KFC and the manager was saying disgusting vulgar things about me behind my back. I would see him watch me but I did not know he was telling others. He was reported by a fellow coworker and the organization only interviewed him and never asked me and avoided putting me on the schedule for weeks until it was over. Fast food industries are actually kind of dangerous for the youth especially
The fast food industry sounds like a disaster to work on entry level jobs, I feel privileged that I've never gone through this. Wish that the conditions would get better for McDonald's employee.
if ur a man or a women who is willing to sit in a lift all day pressing the buttons to the floors ur best of just getting a labouring job in a bulding site then to work in fast food i worked in fast food years ago i hated ever seconed of it and this is coming from someone who worked as a grave digger lol grave diggering aint all that bad the worst part is when someone is being cremated and u can smell it whats the smell aint to bad it smells like bbq pork but its the idia of what is causing that smell i am still a big pork eater but i dont touch bbq pork because of that
1. I thought the biggest McDonald’s problem would be with the food... 2. She said she was sexually harassed “almost immediately” damn wasting no time... 3. McDonald’s response to the victims was basically “Don’t Lie, You’re LOVING IT!”
Wow! But this stuff happens all the time in retail. When I worked in a clothing store in 12th grade, a supervisor slapped my butt. When I objected, he made fun of my physical appearance, as I used to be overweight. He told me that because I was “fat,” that I should be grateful to have any man showing attention to me, as I wasn’t attractive enough to have a man want me. I was crushed by that, as I was just 17 years old. I never told anyone. He resigned eventually, for unrelated reasons. About ten years later, I found out that he was involved in some sort or check/coupon schemes at some other retail establishments. He eventually plead guilty to a 35 year sentence, in order to keep from having to serve a sentence of more than 100 years. I feel like justice was served.
@@Maria.9094 You’re right. I wish he did get the 100 year scheme, as I know of a few other accusations against him for the same reasons. I’m sure that the girls never reported the incidents out of fear or intimidation, as I did. But, knowing the fact that he is in one of the worst prisons satisfies me, as I know that he’s getting his ass beat.
I was there for 6 days. The shifts were terrible , customers treated you like a slave & upper management only cares of how fast you push that food out the window. Working their made me feel less of myself.. I hated it‼️
Anybody who is currently dealing with sexual harassment at work: Report it to a higher authority. Start documenting every incident of harassment, save emails, notes, texts. If the harassment persists, file a charge with the EEOC. You have within 180 or 300 days to file a charge. The EEOC will investigate and can give you permission to file lawsuit depending on your situation.

Those two franchisees were the heart and soul of this video. Bless their hearts. They are the change we wish to see in this world. I hope for the best for them in their future and their lawsuit.
What some don't understand about sexual harassment is that the effects stay with you for years. Worse forms are out there of sexual harassment but all the same, people will have nightmares, anxiety attacks, emotional instability and relationship problems due to trust issues and more. It's not OK, ever, to touch anyone without their permission. And let me say this clearly, pushing someone to say yes is not alright either. No doesn't mean harass for consent
@@Marc98338 believing that black lives matter is propaganda? Youre using that word but do you know what that word means? Imagine thinking being anti racist is something negative that shouldnt be publicly stated in the workplace

@Eli Rodriguez-Torres stop with the race blaming I've meet racist people from all different types of colors I judge people by there characters not there skin color
I wouldn’t recommend McDonald’s as employment for a teen, especially a female. My family an I are boycotting; it’s a small protest, but there are better burgers and locally owned fast food to support.
Theres a lesson to be learned here kids. Besides smoking weed makes intolerable things tolerable. To get along, it helps to go along. Reporting/telling on/snitching on someone rarely helps a situation and its immature to think doing so will improve the problem. Confront people directly, stop being overly sensitive, or simply remove yourself from the situation if it truly makes you uncomfortable. And if your raped by your boss it might be best to avoid any contact with that person/establishment.
I’ve had so many jobs where I have been harassed and discriminated against for being a woman. I’ve witnessed racism at franchises and within corporations... no sh*t America is racist and sexist, but nothing ever seems to improve or change. It’s just sad.
This is hard to even listen to these young girls talking about this. When I was a young kid, working in co-Ed environments, I was already being desensitized to what was essentially sexual harassment. Even as a boy, 16 years old, some of the adult women workers did inappropriately sexual things towards me. Of course since I was a normal boy, I was just flattered and excited about it.
Make no mistake what goes on behind those doors to the kitchen when you are out eating somewhere. Sometimes there’s scumbags and drugs making your food.
This goes around everywhere in any hierarchical structure. Sports teams, family, restaurants, grocery stores, bars, malls, stadiums, politics. Jesus Christ. Fraternities. Don't be trying to pull a geraldo rivera on us
I had to tell my story before finishing this video. Almost all of 2020 I worked at a McDonald’s in Tomball, TX. On Halloween I found about a relationship between a man in his late 40s and a HS senior. I complained and complained. I even almost got into a fight with the guy. I finally went to the police who told me in TX 17 is the age of consent. I still didn’t care because I’m sure this guy didn’t know that. Nobody would listen to me. Not the managers not the other coworkers nobody. The weird this was their attitude was as long as it’s not happening to me I don’t care. There was a lot of victim blaming asking why she spread her legs. I would be shocked saying she’s a kid! This is an adult he shouldn’t be messing with a HS girl. I would also say as adults we should be protecting her. Nobody cared. I eventually heard he caused another HS girl to quit because he kept trying to kiss her. I would say have any of you seen a sexual harassment video?! This is a pattern of behavior. I was told I’m making too much noise and this is just the way men from Latin America act. The HS girl quit because she couldn’t understand that. So i messaged the owner on FB (it wasn’t a corporate store) and told her if I was a parent and found out you kept a guy with a pattern of harassment on you would be in trouble. Soon after that he was fired. I’m not sure if it was because of my message or what. When he was fired other coworkers would whisper about me and I couldn’t believe how almost all the employees were siding with this guy. I quit soon after because I wasn’t getting any support for anyone in there. Don’t let your kids work at McDonald’s. I hope all of these ladies find peace in life. I’m sorry this happened but I’m sure it’s going on at a bunch of McDonalds across America.
Thank you for not giving up. Young kids don't know that this is not normal, and all those enablers should be ashamed. It's a shame it cost you you're employment, but it doesn't sound like a place you'd be comfortable in anymore. I hope that you go on to bigger and better things and you keep fighting the good fight :)
So the thing here is you may not like what the guy did but you really can’t do anything if the girl is okay with it Similar things happen with me and I waited until the girl saw how wrong the guy was and me and my friends took care of him behind the Burger King :) I Gotta say is be patient the time will come
Thank you so much for your persistence. The fact that you cared about those girls, And you fought for them Is an incredible thing to do. We need more people like you
@@JohnJohn-bz1lq if the girl is OK with it? These are vulnerable, naïve teenage girls.You realize that these are young 17-year-old girls right? In the workforce. For many this is their first work experience. All they should have to worry about is doing their job, but being sexually harassed by coworkers is not OK. You cannot justify that at all. It shouldn’t be up for debate. A work environment targeted towards teenagers should be safe no question about it
if a franchise corporation receives sexual harassment complaints, they should have a team responsible for investigating and enforcing policy, not throw their hands up and say take it up with the franchise owner.

How abused do you have to be in your life to feel like you have to say yes to sex just so they can stop pestering you about having sex with you, rather than report it. They’re powerless people.
Oh jeeezus Ive slept with more than one person just to get them to just leave me alone. It’s a trap though because then they message/call you even more and when you go ffs and really put your foot down and stop caring about being nice or polite there’s a strong chance it blows up and all your mutual buds have to listen to sob stories about how you broke their heart. Classic manipulation and gaslighting To be fair there are many women who also try this strategy. men are just much more persistent and the dominant-submissive politeness roles fall in their favour
I used to worK McDonalds in LA. My male manager would only hire young girls based on their looks/body size and basically flirt with them all day long. As one of the few males working there i was surprised none of the female staff ever complained.

This is not a problem just with McDonald's, KFC has the same issues. Worked there in the UK, was not happy with how I saw young girls treated, men in their 30s trying their best to sleep with girls almost half their ages from positions of power.
My manager would make up excuses to get me in his office. He wanted me to sit on his lap but each time I refused. I was 15 and put up with a lot because I needed the paycheck. One day he got angry after I'd refused him again. He followed me to the front and kicked me so hard it lifted my body off the floor and I fell on my back. The only witness was a fellow classmate, an upper class man, (a junior), and he said nothing. Hurt, I went to the stockroom and cried and cried. I never told my parents.
The only reason they are franchises is to simultaneously stop organised protest and protect from law suits. Keeping yourself at arms reach from any legal action or consequences. Franchises should be able to unionise, why not? The conditions in these places are similar, if not the same, can't change anything without fighting for it
Maybe I was one of the lucky ones. I worked in a heavily spanish speaking environment and was one of the few that speaks English there. I worked there for about a year after highschool, they gave free food to workers on break and was even offered manager position. I worked in corporate and not franchise, so I guess it is more disciplined because we were being monitored for any misconducts almost every day by the higher ups.
@@SmootherThanSilk that's why constant reminders of ethics is required. Mcdonald's finally realized that sexual harassment education should be part of an employees initial training. Repeating it enough times would have some impact rather than not talking about it all, as if the problem doesn't exist.
Both sexual harassment and discrimination need to be eliminated everywhere they exist by speaking up, documenting and request solutions. In addition, each person who is guilty should be held accountable. Each business which is guilty should be held accountable too.
Here's the thing about working at mcdonalds (atleast the store I worked at): The kids that work there are as young as 14 sometimes 13 if the manager is desperate enough for new hire, and we have had few 13 year olds. Anyways, we had a coworker who was 21 (eventually he got promoted to manager, because they like to promote just as much as hire.) and he didn't really care about age, lol in fact his motto was "if she's okay with it it's all good huh huh huh". The funniest part about him was he would always flirt with the younger girls no matter what as long as they were decent looking enough to him. They got some weirdo ass mfs workin at mcdonalds lol
I find this extremely hard to believe considering you can’t even get a work permit until you’re 15 and even when you do a get a work permit your school has to approve it and you can only work 2 hours a day on the weekends. So Idk man lol.
I don't really know how the law works in USA, but here in Europe is not allowed to hire people under the age of 16, it considered child labor. Why those kids even need a job at 14? Where are their parents?
@@robertat.8817 In order to work under the age of 18 here in the US you need working papers from your high school, and you can get that at any age as long as you are in high school, and believe it or not there are very few 13 year olds out there w working papers.
I worked at McDonald for 1 year and every day they would leave me in the kitchen alone for 4 hours with someone that would just prepare the burritos for the next day and watch me run and do everything, but like everyone, I had bills to pay.

At Carl’s Jr. You have to be at least 16 and when I worked there in my early 20’s for 3 years I only ever had one 16 yo co worker and the rest were young adults at least 18. 14 seems too young to be working in general.

They are a franchise not an actual company.

And they make that really really hard. For adults. Impossible.
Fast food workers have a huge turnover unionizing would only enrich the union while doing little to nothing for the worker.
People don’t understand being stuck in situations like this, especially when you are a young girl. Most girls, boys as well, are taught “Stranger Danger” when they are young. But nothing is taught about how to recognize what is illegal behavior with an employer or coworker.
@Jessie t I don’t think it’s that simple
It’s very hard to confront someone when they have power over you.
@@perhaps1094 Don't confront them, record the harassment and sue them. It's the only way to protect yourself. If you report it to the higher ups in the company, they will fire you because you are easily replaceable compared to a manager.

I think a lot of it has to do with the culture. We are taught to ignore our neighbors but be subservient to authority. Exemplary subservience to power I must revere the system for its perfect propaganda.

Worked at Burger King as a 16 year old. With a creepy manager in his 40s. The managers office was called "the touch space" it was like a closet. Litrally a inbuilt desk with room for a chair plus a stool. You couldn't fit no more than two people at a time. All franchise managers offices are like this.. Why! Such a intimate claustrophobic, windowless space. The manager tried to put his arms around me in there once. I reacted by hitting him in his neck, he quickly opened the door. And hardly ever spoke to me again.
Good reflexes, keep practicing that move.
I feel like burger king is the worst to their employees. Our office was like that too. I worked there for 4 years and due to my alternative look I got asked from a manager if I was a Satanist. It was horrible there the managers are the worst.

In my early 20's I was a franchise McDonald's manager for years. I'm not exaggerating...I ended up in therapy. I seriously discourage anyone from working in fast food if you can help it. I understand not everyone has a choice but it should be your last choice. I was so fucking stressed out, I couldn't see or think straight. Most management in fast food places hate their lives and have these weird superiority complexes. The entry-level employees were usually good people just trying to earn a living but my fellow managers were just crap humans that took everything out on those below them. The job itself is too damn stressful, especially for the pay. I eventually became a stay-at-home mom for a while but now I'm a part-time bar tender just to get out of the house. You'd think this job would be worse but it's a piece of cake compared to McDonald's, on top of making 3-4 times as much money. Fast food, mainly the management, is just a cesspool of human trash. I'd literally rather be homeless than work there again. These corporations don't give 2 fucks about their employees or the employees of franchise operators. As long as they're getting their slice of the money they're good with whatever is happening. I'm glad that people are suing the corporations. They need to take responsibility too. You don't get to just sit there and collect profit while the workers making you that money are being used and abused. That's disgusting.

Worked at McDonald's in the late 90's. As a new female worker, the environment was almost like a hazing. Touching, grabbing, etc. If that wasnt enough, the boys (often worked the cooking line) would pee in the soapy buckets used to wipe the tables. Would let you wipe them, as they stood around laughing...only to tell you later you wiped tables with pee. And you better go back and wipe them again.

I refused to get in the van, he told me to wise up that look at all my peers what do you think they did and they started way after me. I still refused and he demoted me. I was so humiliated as he yelled and berated me everyday till I quit
@@Darkest_Soul_187 Yes, I was 16. And my co-workers were within my same age group.
Damn, when Daryl began to cry that broke my heart. I feel bad for these men for being treated the way they are being treated. It's despicable what McDonald's is doing.
At 17 a married 40 year old manager asked me to go on holiday with him and generally just didn’t leave me alone for years , another staff members backed me into a corner in a stock room and felt me up :/ , wasn’t a pleasant place to work as a young teenager

@@alisa2650 thank you , it was a long time ago now I’m in my 30s but unfortunately the same thing is still happening to young girls I know who work for the place :( , in hindsight I should of spoke out at the time but I didn’t think it would lead to anywhere :(

Heartbreaking. The young women who was badgered and harassed until she was raped by her manager, a person who had power over her, is just horrifying and something women know all too well.
It's truly awful, so much trauma and pain she must have

God, Jenna's face looks so defeated. Broke my heart to watch. Every retail or food service job I've had I've been assaulted or at least sexually harassed by a manager or coworker and there has never been anything done about it. Misogyny is ingrained in our culture. It feels so hopeless.
ME TOO. EVERY SINGLE EMPLOYER SINCE I WAS 15.
I was sexually harassed by a fellow employee when I worked at Burger King years ago. My boss actually yelled at me for not reporting the incident sooner but there were MULTIPLE incidents and I said NO every time. The regional manager was much more understanding and helpful. Eventually, the other employee was fired.
Stuff like this goes down in a lot of restraunts.

As a female who worked in (non-fast-food) restaurants spanning from 15-18 years old, I can attest that there’s a culture in which harassment is not only tolerated but normalized. It’s tragic and atrocious that underage girls are allowed to be treated this way and no one has even attempted to stop it. I believe all of these young women and wish this much success in their upcoming lawsuit!
I’ve hated each moment of working at McDonald’s. Luckily I finally graduate this year and will be able to quit soon.
Good luck kid, I wish you the best.
As like me, I’m with it as I don’t have any other choice .

As someone who's first job was at mcdonalds, i can see this happenning. During my time there, most managers were in their mid-20's and very unprofessional. Our GM had an affair with an under age female employee. Disturbing.

Very glad to hear you won the law suit
The cops didn't show?
As a female who has been in the food and beverage industry for over 25 years, I can tell you this isn’t just McDonalds. Nor is this an isolated incident. I have been subjected to sexual harassment in the workplace too many times to count. I was even fired from a restaurant in my early twenties after being slapped on the ass by the owner and threatening to file sexual harassment lawsuit. By the time I turned 30ish I just accepted it as part of the job. It was not until I began working for a major coffee company that I realized it isn’t supposed to be that way. These women are telling the truth.
@Brown Incel lolz how dumb are you? I wore an uniform that I didn’t choose and it was all black long sleeve and black pants.
Its very important everyone understands what it means when they say independent franchise owner. I worked for a McDonalds that was independently owned for years and was even assistant general before I quit. This is 100% real and when you try to the right thing and report it to corporate they literally tell you its not there problem and you have to contact the owner. (The owner was who I was trying to report)
I hope those who wrote negative comments are able to see here. They keep denying things like this happened, and replied back with "why don't you just report them lmao"

I'd argue grocery stores are more toxic work environments.
I was SA'd by a Pizza Hut manager when I was 14, I didn't even work there...I was in having dinner with friends before the cinema. At the time I was actually kind of flattered that someone older was interested in me. Now looking back I realise how fucked the whole thing was.

This is so what women in low wage jobs deal with and no one prepares you for it. I had mild sexual harassment at MCDONALDS but subway was my guest experience with hardcore harassment. I was 18 and after I had to hit the nephew of the owner with a box of cold cut combo to eascpe a walk in fridge, I transferred to another store. Except it was worse there. And that’s not even my worst experience of sexual harassment at work.
This breaks my heart. God bless you and stay strong, we need better fathers for those boys/girls whom enact abuse. Disgusting and unacceptable

As a former employee you see a ton of harassment taking place. Specially in the franchised owned locations.
Exactly, these kinds of things are common behind closed doors. People in the comments section acting shocked like they're seeing people on Mars for the first time. Jesus Christ, people just either are naive or just delusional.
Thats how you get a raise at my restaurant - after work activities.
I am technically still employed by mcdonald’s but am looking for a job elsewhere. My experience is that even if there is no explicit harassment like touching and grabbing, the adult managers will still do things to an often underage girl that are not appropriate. The main manager of my workplace not only hires 50% skinny teenage girls but gets uncomfortably close physically and uncomfortably intimate with what he says. He sometimes portrays himself as more than just a manager to them. The vast majority also work up front, where they get oogled and sometimes hit on by male customers. Its a disgusting culture, no one intervenes and the girls themselves only smile and play along because it puts their job at risk if they do anything otherwise, but everyone knows it happens.
I honestly would not be surprised if this type of stuff happens anywhere and everywhere, much more often than we’ll ever know, but it just hasn’t been said out loud yet.
I think that we’ve all heard the gross manager fast food stories. This one guy became the focal point of a class action.
With the consistent weekly profits I'm getting investing with Mrs Emilia Castillo there's no doubt, she is the most reliable in the market. Such a genius.

@Win Everything hypersexualized? Are you making excuses for harassers? It sounds victim blamey.
Right!... fat a** America!..,
I'm going to McDonald's right now and ima enjoy my double cheeseburger meal, large fries and diet coke.
What's crazy, this isn't new. I worked at McDonald's back in 1987 and the managers as well as crew were sexually inappropriate with us then too. It wasn't considered sexual harassment back then. We has these managers who were twin brothers who would kiss us in the mouth as if to say good job. I was only 16 at the time so I didn't know any different.
Taylor, did you see what year I told you it was also right. If you weren't alive then, shut up. You're right, you are sorry.
You didn't know? Must have been the dumbest 16 yo in history
I worked at McDonald’s and I was harassed by a guy I dated that worked with me. He found out I was seeing someone new and he proceeded to yell at me and grab me in front of the entire crew. Nobody did anything and I had to talk the guy down in front of others. Also worked at KFC and the manager was saying disgusting vulgar things about me behind my back. I would see him watch me but I did not know he was telling others. He was reported by a fellow coworker and the organization only interviewed him and never asked me and avoided putting me on the schedule for weeks until it was over. Fast food industries are actually kind of dangerous for the youth especially

Wow! But this stuff happens all the time in retail. When I worked in a clothing store in 12th grade, a supervisor slapped my butt. When I objected, he made fun of my physical appearance, as I used to be overweight. He told me that because I was “fat,” that I should be grateful to have any man showing attention to me, as I wasn’t attractive enough to have a man want me.
I was crushed by that, as I was just 17 years old. I never told anyone. He resigned eventually, for unrelated reasons. About ten years later, I found out that he was involved in some sort or check/coupon schemes at some other retail establishments. He eventually plead guilty to a 35 year sentence, in order to keep from having to serve a sentence of more than 100 years. I feel like justice was served.
Too bad he didn't get the 100 year sentence. These guys are predators and do not change.
@@Maria.9094 You’re right. I wish he did get the 100 year scheme, as I know of a few other accusations against him for the same reasons. I’m sure that the girls never reported the incidents out of fear or intimidation, as I did. But, knowing the fact that he is in one of the worst prisons satisfies me, as I know that he’s getting his ass beat.
Why would he have gotten a 100 year sentence for a check/coupon scheme........ lol
I was there for 6 days. The shifts were terrible , customers treated you like a slave & upper management only cares of how fast you push that food out the window. Working their made me feel less of myself.. I hated it‼️
Anybody who is currently dealing with sexual harassment at work: Report it to a higher authority. Start documenting every incident of harassment, save emails, notes, texts. If the harassment persists, file a charge with the EEOC. You have within 180 or 300 days to file a charge. The EEOC will investigate and can give you permission to file lawsuit depending on your situation.

I wouldn’t recommend McDonald’s as employment for a teen, especially a female. My family an I are boycotting; it’s a small protest, but there are better burgers and locally owned fast food to support.
I hated working at Mcdonalds and I wasn't even sexually harassed but it helped that I got high with my supervisors in my car.
Ain’t nothing wrong with that
Can’t harass someone who’s giving complete consent l😂
Theres a lesson to be learned here kids. Besides smoking weed makes intolerable things tolerable.
To get along, it helps to go along. Reporting/telling on/snitching on someone rarely helps a situation and its immature to think doing so will improve the problem. Confront people directly, stop being overly sensitive, or simply remove yourself from the situation if it truly makes you uncomfortable. And if your raped by your boss it might be best to avoid any contact with that person/establishment.

Did you sue those business or charge the people who did this with a crime?
This is hard to even listen to these young girls talking about this. When I was a young kid, working in co-Ed environments, I was already being desensitized to what was essentially sexual harassment. Even as a boy, 16 years old, some of the adult women workers did inappropriately sexual things towards me. Of course since I was a normal boy, I was just flattered and excited about it.

I had to tell my story before finishing this video. Almost all of 2020 I worked at a McDonald’s in Tomball, TX. On Halloween I found about a relationship between a man in his late 40s and a HS senior. I complained and complained. I even almost got into a fight with the guy. I finally went to the police who told me in TX 17 is the age of consent. I still didn’t care because I’m sure this guy didn’t know that. Nobody would listen to me. Not the managers not the other coworkers nobody. The weird this was their attitude was as long as it’s not happening to me I don’t care. There was a lot of victim blaming asking why she spread her legs. I would be shocked saying she’s a kid! This is an adult he shouldn’t be messing with a HS girl. I would also say as adults we should be protecting her. Nobody cared. I eventually heard he caused another HS girl to quit because he kept trying to kiss her. I would say have any of you seen a sexual harassment video?! This is a pattern of behavior. I was told I’m making too much noise and this is just the way men from Latin America act. The HS girl quit because she couldn’t understand that. So i messaged the owner on FB (it wasn’t a corporate store) and told her if I was a parent and found out you kept a guy with a pattern of harassment on you would be in trouble. Soon after that he was fired. I’m not sure if it was because of my message or what. When he was fired other coworkers would whisper about me and I couldn’t believe how almost all the employees were siding with this guy. I quit soon after because I wasn’t getting any support for anyone in there. Don’t let your kids work at McDonald’s. I hope all of these ladies find peace in life. I’m sorry this happened but I’m sure it’s going on at a bunch of McDonalds across America.
Thank you for what you did! It was the right thing to do and took courage and persistence. You have my utmost respect. All the best!
Thank you for not giving up. Young kids don't know that this is not normal, and all those enablers should be ashamed.
It's a shame it cost you you're employment, but it doesn't sound like a place you'd be comfortable in anymore. I hope that you go on to bigger and better things and you keep fighting the good fight :)
So the thing here is you may not like what the guy did but you really can’t do anything if the girl is okay with it Similar things happen with me and I waited until the girl saw how wrong the guy was and me and my friends took care of him behind the Burger King :) I Gotta say is be patient the time will come
Thank you so much for your persistence. The fact that you cared about those girls, And you fought for them Is an incredible thing to do. We need more people like you
@@JohnJohn-bz1lq if the girl is OK with it? These are vulnerable, naïve teenage girls.You realize that these are young 17-year-old girls right? In the workforce. For many this is their first work experience. All they should have to worry about is doing their job, but being sexually harassed by coworkers is not OK. You cannot justify that at all. It shouldn’t be up for debate. A work environment targeted towards teenagers should be safe no question about it
if a franchise corporation receives sexual harassment complaints, they should have a team responsible for investigating and enforcing policy, not throw their hands up and say take it up with the franchise owner.

How abused do you have to be in your life to feel like you have to say yes to sex just so they can stop pestering you about having sex with you, rather than report it.
They’re powerless people.
Oh jeeezus Ive slept with more than one person just to get them to just leave me alone. It’s a trap though because then they message/call you even more and when you go ffs and really put your foot down and stop caring about being nice or polite there’s a strong chance it blows up and all your mutual buds have to listen to sob stories about how you broke their heart. Classic manipulation and gaslighting
To be fair there are many women who also try this strategy. men are just much more persistent and the dominant-submissive politeness roles fall in their favour
Sounds like I need to start pestering you all to speak clearly through the drive-thru speaker.
I used to worK McDonalds in LA. My male manager would only hire young girls based on their looks/body size and basically flirt with them all day long.

From a terrible 2 and a half years working at McDonald's I seen a lot of messed up situations so I wouldn't be surprised to be honest.🤷♂️
Edit: This got a lot of likes for anyone wondering how bad my experience was go youtube Ottawa Rideau McDonald's. You won't be disappointed
We should ensure the shitty employees you used to work with are paid $15 an hour. If you disagree ur racist.
@@tightywhitey9779 um..I don't know what you're talking about but I was referring to my overall experience working there..
@@tightywhitey9779 i disagree
lol you should try a real kitchen mc donalds the place for the people that cant handle the kitchen real chefs are way worse
@@Mr_blue_7777 I wouldn't be surprised tbh though Mc is the complete opposite. Working kitchen is where ppl go to avoid most of work dramas

I am so glad I haven't spent much money on McDonald's in my life, & I intend to forever boycott the company forever. I also look forward to supporting the plaintiff's in these lawsuits to the best of my ability.
Thank you

So great to see that Isobel Yeung is back! And with the Palestinian flag face mask, hell YES! She is truly of one the gems of VICE, always doing amazing work.
Yeah bro, she's professional and she's a cutie! Though, I'm not sure it's the flag design of Palestine if you compare it with a real one closely.
@@HCEveningWalk its not too explicit on purpose to not rile up all the zionists and then the message of the vid gets squashed. But its def palestinian!
This is not a problem just with McDonald's, KFC has the same issues. Worked there in the UK, was not happy with how I saw young girls treated, men in their 30s trying their best to sleep with girls almost half their ages from positions of power.
I worked here. Was one of the worst jobs I ever had. Also made me realize how they actually do everything. Now I never eat there either.
My manager would make up excuses to get me in his office. He wanted me to sit on his lap but each time I refused.
I was 15 and put up with a lot because I needed the paycheck.
One day he got angry after I'd refused him again. He followed me to the front and kicked me so hard it lifted my body off the floor and I fell on my back. The only witness was a fellow classmate, an upper class man, (a junior), and he said nothing.
Hurt, I went to the stockroom and cried and cried.
I never told my parents.
That's so messed up
That’s not right, I’m so sorry you had to be in that situation with no one to stand up for you! 😔

I didn't because I thought they'd blame me.
The only reason they are franchises is to simultaneously stop organised protest and protect from law suits. Keeping yourself at arms reach from any legal action or consequences.
Franchises should be able to unionise, why not? The conditions in these places are similar, if not the same, can't change anything without fighting for it
Maybe I was one of the lucky ones. I worked in a heavily spanish speaking environment and was one of the few that speaks English there. I worked there for about a year after highschool, they gave free food to workers on break and was even offered manager position.
I worked in corporate and not franchise, so I guess it is more disciplined because we were being monitored for any misconducts almost every day by the higher ups.
aahhh a manager
This is soo depressing.. these predators don't even understand what they are doing to the girls life.. insane how detached from reality people can be.
That is their reality, everyone's reality is different, people live in their own bubbles, having their individual opinions.
@@SmootherThanSilk that's why constant reminders of ethics is required. Mcdonald's finally realized that sexual harassment education should be part of an employees initial training. Repeating it enough times would have some impact rather than not talking about it all, as if the problem doesn't exist.
Both sexual harassment and discrimination need to be eliminated everywhere they exist by speaking up, documenting and request solutions. In addition, each person who is guilty should be held accountable. Each business which is guilty should be held accountable too.
Here's the thing about working at mcdonalds (atleast the store I worked at): The kids that work there are as young as 14 sometimes 13 if the manager is desperate enough for new hire, and we have had few 13 year olds. Anyways, we had a coworker who was 21 (eventually he got promoted to manager, because they like to promote just as much as hire.) and he didn't really care about age, lol in fact his motto was "if she's okay with it it's all good huh huh huh". The funniest part about him was he would always flirt with the younger girls no matter what as long as they were decent looking enough to him. They got some weirdo ass mfs workin at mcdonalds lol
I find this extremely hard to believe considering you can’t even get a work permit until you’re 15 and even when you do a get a work permit your school has to approve it and you can only work 2 hours a day on the weekends. So Idk man lol.
@@fallen9789 my school does this thing where you can work when you turn 14 and work for up to 40 hours as long as your grades don’t drop
@@cornporn3609 how do you go to school if ur a minor and work 40 hours a week? that doesn't seem possible or healthy
I don't really know how the law works in USA, but here in Europe is not allowed to hire people under the age of 16, it considered child labor. Why those kids even need a job at 14? Where are their parents?
@@robertat.8817 In order to work under the age of 18 here in the US you need working papers from your high school, and you can get that at any age as long as you are in high school, and believe it or not there are very few 13 year olds out there w working papers.

@@samd1405 bullshit. RAISE BOYS BETTER. Period.
I worked at McDonald for 1 year and every day they would leave me in the kitchen alone for 4 hours with someone that would just prepare the burritos for the next day and watch me run and do everything, but like everyone, I had bills to pay. I told them they were overworking me and that i was quitting in two weeks. She kept just trying to say she’ll have more people in the kitchen and it never happened.
We as a society are past the need of McDonald’s
